True

So how, how did I lose the thread?

When you reeled it in again

I could be caught on that line

Spending my time swimming with you

Your love is often unkind, bitter and blind

Sometimes casually cruel

But it's true

But it's true

You give more than you would ever take

Forgive the mess I leave in my wake

I'm inconsistent at best

Never at rest, ever the fool

I'm always stumbling around knocking things down

But whatever else I do

I'll be true

I'll be true

I'll be true

You're in and out of my hands

Slipping like sand, passing like time

Your love is brutally bold, careless and cold

But it's mine, mine

I won't tell you a lie, so be careful what you ask me

I don't care, I don't mind if you never understand me

Every day, every night I can promise you

I can promise you

I'll be true

I'll be true

True
